"I have tried hard--but life is difficult, and I am a very useless person. I can hardly be said to have an independent existence. I was just a screw or a cog in the great machine I called life, and when I dropped out of it I found I was of no use anywhere else."

I gotta get serious about my diet so I can look this good in this outfit (which Im wearing to AMG),,,

*and yes, Im afraid it says Lick at the Split

No need to diet, missy. You look good like that. Were you at Walmart when that pic was taken?

Spaghetti with ramps... and yes, I made my own fucking breadcrumbs from fresh pain au levain and they made the dish (and I feel sorry for my dentist tomorrow seeing as how ramps are stronger than garlic)

Voters may associate the historic city with other comfort foods like cheesesteaks and pizza but it made a huge jump this year with its burgers, up from last yearís No. 22 ranking. Perhaps some thanks is due to celebrity chef Jose Garces, who tops his eight-ounce Angus burgers at Village Whiskey, off Rittenhouse Square, with maple bourbonĖglazed cipollini, Rogue blue cheese, or foie gras. New restaurant Hickory Lane is also getting raves for its burger, a blend of filet mignon, short ribs, and brisket.

I've been to the Village Whiskey but only for drinks, as this burger costs $26 plus $5 for "duck fat" fries

I was shocked to learn Pizza hut won best pizza in town when I lived in San Diego . Bad food sometimes gets good reviews in tourist city's . I had family visit me in chicago and insist on going to Planet Hollywood or the Hard Rock ... I hated going to those places when there was so much excellent local flavor too be had .

Though I must say, lunch at my favorite Haitian restaurant was very good.

Please note that I can now obtain al pastor pizza prepared by Rosario a mere one block from my front door. What's more is that they have on-line late night delivery. And there are five other "Mexican" pizzas on their menu along with the more traditional types.

That cream corn looks simply vile, like baby vomit. Is cream corn different than corn pudding? I only know the latter because it's made at our house at Thanksgiving, in homage to our "fake" Southern roots.

And that's not faux cheesecake -- I think it's faux banana cream. Cheesecake is far too Yankee-ish to be served in a hospice down there.

ps: I've now located Paramount Nursing home on google maps and can wave hello I swear it's surrounded by rather odd scrubland. Is that the way everything looks down there?

If you go up the road and take a left you'll find Mama Lee's Soul Food. Why don't you pick something up there to take back to Paramount for you mother to eat in her room with you. She'll appreciate the thought. (The smothered pork chop with steamed rice and sweet corn is what I would order! and a dessert of banana pudding)

And the spices in my recipe also add in cumin, cardamon and red pepper flakes

Byotch, that sounds quite good. I love me some feijoada, especially the one from this place called Camila's Restaurant.

Today I thought of you as I had lunch at my favorite Haitian place with a couple of friends. I'm becoming addicted to their food. I'll snap some pictars the next time that I go.

I thought of you today too when I read about the Miami Naked Zombie and his face-chewing victim.

Oh G_d, was that horrible or what. That poor homeless man is still in critical condition.

I think it's high time that Wumpy check in with all of us and give an update on his dietary improvements. AND WHERE THE FUCK ARE THOSE RESULTS FROM HIS LIPID PANEL LAB TESTS?

ps: I ate at a Ruby Tuesday's last night and did not enjoy it. Someone gave me a $25 gift card for it last Christmas (perish the thought) so I took my father out to eat with it since my mother was busy at a community meeting and wasn't going to make dinner. I'm not even sure if I'd ever been in a Ruby Tuesday.

Ok, here's my check in....Fuck off.

But for realz, I had to cancel my appt last week because I didnt get my labs taken in time (actually, I didnt get labs taken at all). So my appt is rescheduled for July 6th or something. I'm getting as bad as Trey arent I.

I still think I should get a pass on my lipid results till next quarter due to the shitty diet I have been eating (of course because of mom), oh and also the fact that I stopped taking Fish oil because I am afraid of it.

I will however regale you with this photo of my emerging Tomato bumper crop...
